Changed IP address, the previous one sometimes went down.
It's still propagating but also the old one works.

Added this new forum section for your suggestions and my notifications.

Avatars at 120x120.

Removed admin color. So we have all the same color, after all this is a community forum.

I have inserted a limit to the images linking/posting of 1024 px width.
Most people have laptop with 1280 or 1366 px, so using images of 1920 doesn't seem a good idea.
A big image changes the layout of the forum so everything written under it will go on a looong line.

Renamed the "Game Archive" forum, so now it takes less space on Twitter (@zenhax).
Renamed also "Game protocols and internals" for the same reason.

Sorry for the "Internal Server Error" issue that happened for few minutes yesterday and lot of time today.
I hope the hoster will do something, but in the meantime I have restored the situation modifying the DNS.

As you have probably noticed, I have updated the forum... what horrible experience, "thanks" phpBB for that.

The thanks mod is not working yet because the 3.1 extension is tagged as unstable.
I will install it when I will be sure that it's not a problem (let me know your feedback about it).

Note that it's not possible to go back to the previous phpbb version so hope you appreciate this one and feel free to post your feedback and suggestions.
Currently it looks good.

P.S.: I have activated gravatars in case someone of you uses them

Huh, was there a certain reason why you updated? Security issues?

As for the thanks button: SUCH A SHAME!!! I really liked it, so I hope it will come back soon!

Yeah I updated for security reasons and didn't check that the 3.1 branch changed also the core making everything not compatible, usually it's released a major version for this type of deep changes... mah.

There is a beta for 3.1 but it's not considered stable so not worth to try.
